Daniel Clowes
Daniel Gillespie Clowes (; born April 14, 1961) is an American cartoonist, graphic novelist, illustrator, and screenwriter. Most of Clowes's work first appeared in '' Eightball'', a solo anthology comic book series. An ''Eightball'' issue typically contained several short pieces and a chapter of a longer narrative that was later collected and published as a graphic novel, such as ''Like a Velvet Glove Cast in Iron'' (1993), '' Ghost World'' (1997), ''David Boring'' (2000) and ''Patience'' (2016). Clowes's illustrations have appeared in '' The New Yorker'', '' Newsweek'', ''Vogue'', '' The Village Voice'', and elsewhere. With filmmaker Terry Zwigoff, Clowes adapted ''Ghost World'' into a 2001 film and another ''Eightball'' story into the 2006 film, ''Art School Confidential''.

Eightball (comics)
''Eightball'' is a comic book by Daniel Clowes and published by Fantagraphics Books. It ran from 1989 to 2004. The first issue appeared soon after the end of Clowes's previous comic book, '' Lloyd Llewellyn''. ''Eightball'' has been among the best-selling series in alternative comics. Early issues of ''Eightball'' feature a mixture of very short, often crudely humorous comics ("Zubrick and Pogeybait", " The Sensual Santa"), topical rants and satires ("Art School Confidential", "On Sports"), longer, more reflective self-contained stories ("Caricature", "Immortal Invisible"), and serialized works. The first extended story serialized in ''Eightball'' was '' Like a Velvet Glove Cast in Iron'', which ran in issues #1–10. ''Glove'' was followed by '' Ghost World'' (issues #11–18). Beginning with #19 each issue of ''Eightball'' has been devoted to a single storyline, as opposed to the more eclectic format of the earlier issues. Issues #19–21 serialized the graphic novel '' Davi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
BLAB!
''Blab!'' was an anthology edited by Monte Beauchamp that featured a mixture of alternative comics and illustrated features focused predominantly on illustration, graphic design, and lowbrow art. The first two issues (1986–87) were published by Beauchamp's own imprint, Monte Comix. In 1988 Kitchen Sink Press took over the title, publishing issues #3-8 as well as printing new editions of issues #1 and 2. Issues #9–18 were published annually by Fantagraphics between 1997 and 2007 in a 120-page, 10" x 10" square format featuring both black-and-white and color art. In 2010 Last Gasp revived the series for two issues under the title ''Blab World''. In 2003, Chronicle Books published the book collection ''New & Used Blab!''. As the title suggests, one half of the book consists of selections from previous issues while the other half (bound dos-à-dos style) features new works by frequent contributors. Several solo books by individual ''Blab!'' contributors were published with the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Young Lust (comics)
''Young Lust'' was an underground comix anthology published sporadically from 1970 to 1993. The title, which parodied 1950s romance comics such as '' Young Love'', was noted for its explicit depictions of sex. Unlike many other sex-fueled underground comix, ''Young Lust'' was generally not perceived as misogynistic. Founding editors Bill Griffith and Jay Kinney gradually morphed the title into a satire of societal mores. According to Kinney, ''Young Lust'' "became one of the top three best-selling underground comix, along with '' Zap Comix'' and '' The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers''". ''Young Lust'' featured an all-star lineup of underground, and later alternative, cartoonists. Besides Griffith and Kinney, other frequent contributors included Justin Green, Roger Brand, Spain Rodriguez, Diane Noomin, Kim Deitch, Paul Mavrides, Michael McMillan, Ned Sonntag, Phoebe Gloeckner, and Harry S. Robins. In later years, the title was a showcase for female cartoonists like Gloeckner ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Weirdo (comics)
''Weirdo'' was a magazine-sized comics anthology created by Robert Crumb and published by Last Gasp from 1981 to 1993. Featuring cartoonists both new and old, ''Weirdo'' served as a "low art" counterpoint to its contemporary highbrow '' Raw'', co-edited by Art Spiegelman. Crumb contributed cover art and comics to every issue of ''Weirdo''; his wife, cartoonist Aline Kominsky-Crumb, also had work in almost every issue. Crumb focused increasingly on autobiography in his stories in ''Weirdo''. Many other autobiographical shorts would appear in ''Weirdo'' by other artists, including Kominsky-Crumb, Carol Tyler, Phoebe Gloeckner, and Dori Seda. David Collier, a Canadian ex-soldier, published autobiographical and historical comics in ''Weirdo''. The anthology introduced artists such as Peter Bagge, Dori Seda, Dennis Worden, and Carol Tyler. With issue #10, Crumb handed over the editing reins to Bagge; with issue #18, the reins went to Kominsky-Crumb (except for issue #25, which was a ...

The Duplex Planet
''The Duplex Planet'' is a zine edited and published by David Greenberger since 1979. It contains transcriptions of his interviews with elderly residents of senior centers and "meal sites" in the Massachusetts area. For many years, the zine focused on the residents of the Duplex Nursing Home, located in Boston. ''The Duplex Planet'' has subsequently found larger audiences in other forms — which are all derived from the original template — including book collections, spoken-word recordings, and a series of concerts. A series of personal commentaries drawn from Greenberger's experiences with this body of work has aired regularly on National Public Radio's "All Things Considered". Some of the Duplex Nursing Home residents, all identified by name, became recurring characters in the zine and its various offshoots and adaptations. Background In 1979, having just completed a degree in fine arts as a painter, Greenberger took a job as activities director at the Duplex Nursing H ...

Comics By Daniel Clowes
a medium used to express ideas with images, often combined with text or other visual information. It typically the form of a sequence of panels of images. Textual devices such as speech balloons, captions, and onomatopoeia can indicate dialogue, narration, sound effects, or other information. There is no consensus amongst theorists and historians on a definition of comics; some emphasize the combination of images and text, some sequentiality or other image relations, and others historical aspects such as mass reproduction or the use of recurring characters. Cartooning and other forms of illustration are the most common image-making means in comics; ''fumetti'' is a form that uses photographic images. Common forms include comic strips, editorial and gag cartoons, and comic books.
